The Water's Edge

A Really Cool Silent Night

written by Craig Finnestad December 24, 2016

WE had such a wonderful Christmas Eve at The Water’s Edge. Over 1,500 people worshipped with us which is a new record! I want to thank each of the staff and volunteers – well over 100 of you – who made this possible. Also a special thanks to the band. You were awesome and put in a ton of hours.

Excited for 2017. WE will be breaking ground on our first building in a few months and lots of cool stuff planned to serve our city.

On the Future of Methodism

I am not afraid that the people called Methodists should ever cease to exist either in Europe or America. But I am afraid lest they should only exist as a dead sect, having the form of religion without the power. And this undoubtedly will be the case unless they hold fast both the doctrine, spirit, and discipline with which they first set out. -John Wesley
